Speculative Application – Architectural Designer
Shape inspiring concepts, refine details, and help studios turn ideas into built reality.
Who We Are
Architecture Social is a recruitment partner and community built for architects and designers. We work with practices that depend on skilled Architectural Designers to develop early-stage concepts, drive presentations, and guide schemes into planning. Even when those studios are not advertising, they ask us to keep a shortlist of exceptional talent—so we stay ready.
What our clients typically ask for
Around three to six years’ professional experience producing concept, schematic and detailed design packages
A portfolio that balances creative flair with clear technical thinking, including models, visuals, and planning submissions
Proficiency in Rhino, Revit or AutoCAD, plus Adobe Creative Suite for polished presentation graphics; Enscape or Twinmotion is a bonus
Confidence leading design workshops, collaborating with consultants, and articulating ideas to clients and planning officers
Strong organisational skills to manage deadlines, coordinate information, and respond constructively to feedback
If your portfolio shows fresh thinking, technical savvy and a hunger to see great design built, we want to hear from you.
Why Register With Architecture Social
Early access to opportunities comes as standard—many practices brief us before roles reach the open market. We align your sector interests, software strengths and career goals with the right environment, then support you with salary benchmarks, profile feedback and a discreet recruitment process that keeps you in control. Inside the Architecture Social platform you can also join peer forums, attend skill-building webinars and tap into practical career tools.
